Joe was born and raised in Moosomin, SK and held many cherished memories of Moosomin, and the Pipestone Valley. He was a passionate entrepreneur owning and operating businesses in Langenburg and Regina. The venture he most embraced was a fly-in fishing camp in Northern Saskatchewan, Drinking Falls Lodge,? which he owned and operated, together with his family and from which he retired at an early age. He also developed and loved their acreage near Lumsden Beach and fully enjoyed their condo home in Lumsden, SK where he has shared his community leadership abilities. Joe loved life, his treasured family and his wide circle of friends including the guides and their families from Stanley Mission. He was most happy when he could lend a helping hand or share a story or two. His interests included hockey (player and coach), hunting, fishing, nature, and travel. He was truly loved and will be missed. A Celebration of Joes Life will be held on Saturday, January 30, 2 pm, at St. Andrews United Church, Lumsden. Cremation, with interment at a later date.
